About

LimitLock

Features
Read full description

LimitLock is the fastest way to manage your tournament bag on the water. Set your fish limit, log each catch with a weight and color tag, and LimitLock keeps your bag sorted heaviest-to-lightest. When your bag is full and you boat a bigger fish, it instantly tells you which one to cull and updates your totals. HOW IT WORKS - Set your limit (1-10 fish) - Log each catch by tapping + or using voice ("3.52 yellow") - LimitLock auto-identifies your lightest fish and marks it for culling - When you catch a bigger one, log it and LimitLock swaps it in automatically - Running day stats show how many fish you've caught and total weight boated VOICE LOGGING Say the weight and color tag out loud - "2.9 green" - and LimitLock does the rest. No fumbling with your phone on a rocking boat. APPLE WATCH COMPANION Log catches, view your sorted bag, and check totals right from your wrist. Stays in sync with your phone automatically via Watch Connectivity. DAY STATS Ever finish a tournament and wonder how many fish you actually caught? LimitLock tracks every fish you boat throughout the day - not just what's in your bag - so you'll always know. Built by a tournament fisherman, for tournament fishermen.
